Where better to practise and fine-tune your game of tennis than the beautiful sunwashed Algarve?

Light Blue Travel’s involvement in tennis and the Algarve, Portugal’s southern coastline, go back a long way. Director Rupert Thomson, a keen sportsman and County Tennis player, has, along with Light Blue Travel's well-established family villa and hotel holidays, encouraged the development of tennis holidays and golf holidays to the region. The Algarve, Portugal enjoys over 3000 hours of sunshine a year and has an ideal year round climate for the sporting enthusiast. Over 100 miles of beaches backed by red sandstone cliffs make the perfect setting for tennis holidays or any leisure and sports holidays.

Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or high club tennis player the Vale do Lobo Tennis Academy offers the ideal destination for weekend tennis holidays. 

With a weekend break any days or flights are possible.  The weekend includes 6 hours group coaching, two hours a day for three mornings.  All extra court time is included so you can play as much as you wish and if you wish to add more private coaching you can do.  This is your break and you can decide how much you want to play or not play.  You will also have access to the gym, sauna, steam and pool at the club for relaxation time.

We can offer flexible durations and all types of accommodation from self catering apartments to villas or hotels on a bed & breakfast or half board option.  Check out the Dona Filipa Hotel located right on the beach in the heart of Vale do Lobo or alternatively we feature the Ria Park Hotel & Spa. If you prefer to self cater then stay in a villa close to the beach.  Villa Koura at Dunas Douradas is a good choice and why not hire bikes to get to the tennis centre.  If you prefer to be very close to the tennis centre take a look at Villa Charlotte.

Car hire is included with our holidays, however, NEW for 2016 is  a FLY and BIKE option where you collect your bikes at the airport and cycle along the coast through the Ria Formosa National Park to your accommodation.  Your luggage will be transported to the hotel by the rep dont worry! This option means you dont waste valuable weekend time getting your car hire and feel like you are on holiday the minute you cycle towards the sea away from the airport. What a fabulous way to start your holiday!
